and OF the same time to deceive and
blind those Of their class. I don't tell
these things out Of any disrespect to the
Mornons; on the contrary, / do so TO
show to them what Mormonism has pro-
ducsd and what it Is still producing.
Now. can it be possible that the Great
Head and Organizer of all things up
holds, excuses, defends and condones
such yagaries, crimes and wictedness.
1t canuot be possible. i. seems down-
right blasphemy to attribute 70 Him such
business. We saints of this lafter-dsy
fraud, TOR such it must bel, think Of it
seriously. Don't infiict upon your
selves and your children hariships, pri-
va,ions. poverty, want and misery, &c
obey the counsels VI fraudulent and
wicked priesthood, thinking by so doing
you appease the wrath of Hin who
rules all things in love. And now gentle
reader investigate this thing called
Mormonism thoroughly, and you will
certainly come to the same conclusion
with the humble writer. Recollect the
words Of one 10 whom ehristendom looks
up to with reverence. Beware Of false
prophets who come to you in sleeps
clothing. but inwardly are ravenous
wolves. They shall deceive many"
Again. there shall arise false Christs
and false prophets, and show great signs
and wonders, insomueh that, if it were
possible, they shall deceive the very
elect, etc"

A QUEER DEATH.-An unusual case of
hanging occurred in Napa county few
days ago. 1t seems that man by the
name of VIM. Johnson accompanied COM
mercial traveller into the country, his mis-
sion being to clear the road of oil S ructions,
fallen trees, etc. He retu ned home de-
cidedly under the influence of liquor and
having in his possession flask of whisky.
He went TO a hotel 10 so to bed, but becom-
ing sick repaired to the back yard, which
is inclosed by picket fence, to relieve his
stomach of the vile poison of which he had
imbibed too freely. He leaned over the
fence to vomit, and his head caught be-
tween the pickets which were pointed, and
there he straneled to death. What an
awful lesson in intemperance there is in
the above occurrence. Young men and
old, beware of the picket-fence when you
are full" Even young men who are in
the habit of tarrying at the front gate with
their best girl might learn lesson from
the above tragic execution. This weather
especially might prove fatal. Suppose you
should become weak from an overdose of
:" chin music" taffy and zero weather and
fall over on the gate and hang yourself, and
in the morning the Coroner would come
around and sit upon you. Just think OF it,
boys, and take warning.-Red Blaf' Sentinel.

THE AMERICAN TURF.
.Speeulations Concerning the Kentucky
Derby and Haggin's Stable.

SpeeuIations Concerning the Kentucky
Derby and Haggins Stable.
NEW YORK, February 1Sth.-The Mail
and Express sporting editor says: The Ken
lucky Derby will be decided on Churchill
Downs, May 11th. l wish to go upon
record for Alcade, or whichever horse Hag
gin may choose 10 represent him in the
classic State. believe Alcade to be the
pick of the lot. If Haggin should not start
him it will be due to the fact that he thinks
Bancura Bainblidge, Tulare, Silverbow or
Damuth equally competent to last. All
the turf authorities seem to agree that AL
cade will not be sent to Louisville for the
Derby, but that Haggin will save him for
the rich emporium at Sheepshead Bay, in
which he will be entitled to IA pounds al
dowance, as a maiden 'two-year-old. The
chief reason why Haggin will probably en-
ter Alcade for the Derby is that he derives
considerable revenue from his stable by
heavy wagers on the speed and endurance
of the horses he breeds. He has more than
a million dollars invested in his turf enter
prises. The stake money to be won during
one season would not pay him for the in
terest on capital invested. His expenses
must be nearly 100000. That is not
nearly the limit of what he may win dur
ing a successful season. Consequently he
invests his money on the speed of his
horses, hoping by good training to derive
good returns.
